how many times larger is 4*10^4 than 2*10^2

Answer 1

To find out how many times larger 4*10^4 is than 2*10^2, we can divide the first number by the second number.

4*10^4 / 2*10^2

First, let's simplify each term within the parentheses:

4/2 = 2
10^4 / 10^2 = 10^(4-2) = 10^2

Now we can rewrite the expression:

2 * 10^2

Therefore, 4*10^4 is 2*10^2 times larger than 2*10^2.
